2. Ray tracing (graphics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ray_tracing_(graphics)

   This recursive ray tracing of reflective colored spheres on a white surface demonstrates the effects of shallow depth of field, "area" light sources, and diffuse interreflection. (c. 2008) In 3D computer graphics, ray tracing is a technique for modeling light transport for use in a wide variety of rendering algorithms for generating digital images.

3. Ray tracing explained: The future of hyper-realistic graphics

   www.aol.com/news/2018-04-16-the-future-of-ray...

   Ray tracing has long been gaming's holy grail. A method of creating hyper-realistic lighting and graphics, for years ray tracing has been promised as the technology that will take games the next ...

4. Reflection (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reflection_(computer_graphics)

   Ray-traced model demonstrating specular reflection. Reflection in computer graphics is used to render reflective objects like mirrors and shiny surfaces. Accurate reflections are commonly computed using ray tracing whereas approximate reflections can usually be computed faster by using simpler methods such as environment mapping.

5. Rendering (computer graphics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rendering_(computer_graphics)

   A type of ray tracing called path tracing is currently the most common technique for photorealistic rendering. Path tracing is also popular for generating high-quality non-photorealistic images, such as frames for 3D animated films. Both rasterization and ray tracing can be sped up ("accelerated") by specially designed microprocessors called GPUs.

6. Real-time computer graphics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real-time_computer_graphics

   Real-time computer graphics systems differ from traditional (i.e., non-real-time) rendering systems in that non-real-time graphics typically rely on ray tracing. In this process, millions or billions of rays are traced from the camera to the world for detailed rendering—this expensive operation can take hours or days to render a single frame.

7. Computer graphics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_graphics

   In the 2020s', advances in ray-tracing technology allowed it to be used for real-time rendering, as well as AI-powered graphics for generating or upscaling While ray-tracing existed before, Nvidia was the first to push for ray-tracing with ray-tracing cores, as well as for AI with DLSS and Tensor cores. AMD followed suit with the same; FSR ...

8. 3D rendering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_rendering

   It's is the one responsible for the transformation of the prepared 3D scene into a 2D image or animation. 3D render engines can be based on different methods, such as ray-tracing, rasterization, path-tracing, also depending on the speed and the outcome expected, it comes in different types – real-time and non real-time, which was described above

9. Graphics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics

   In 1968, ray tracing was first described by Arthur Appel of the IBM Research Center, Yorktown Heights, N.Y. [1] During the late 1970s, home computers became more powerful, capable of drawing both basic and complex shapes and designs. In the 1980s, artists and graphic designers began to see the personal computer as a serious design tool, one ...
